Hola Goddesses!

I have been working my butt off in the gym and I have updated pic for you!:

taken 11/04/12

I have built lots of muscle, lost a total of 21 lbs and lost tons of inches since 4/5/12 and I am now at 136 lbs at 5' 4". I feel great and my next fitness goals are to lean out more so my abs can pop, build up my glute muscles and increase my flexibility so I can do the splits. I'm so glad that I adopted this healthy lifestyle because I am in such a better place than I was earlier this year. I owe a lot of my success to one of my good friends Sonia. She has inspired me and pushed me to succeed with my fitness goals. We are also planning to do fitness videos to appear here on Bronze Goddess Beauty featuring Sonia since she is the fitness guru and helped me get this body! Stay tuned for that! I hope that my journey inspires you to get healthy and get fit. If you have any fitness or nutrition questions for me or Sonia, please leave a comment or email me at cerisa@bronzegoddessbeauty.com. Thank you all for joining me on this journey!

Hola Goddesses!

I went to CVS this morning and picked up this new polish color! I didn't have this color in my collection and this is also my first Wet n Wild Megalast polish.

This is a cream that was bottle color in two coats. It reminds me of a robin's egg shell color. Lovely. I am currently growing my nails out. I broke my thumb nail so I cut the others down. :( I prefer longer nails for me as they look better with my hand shape.

Have a wonderful Sunday!

Hola Goddesses!

A special someone suggested that I post pics of myself at the gym, so here is the first.

Just finished Zumba class at LA Fitness

I have been working out consistently for about 2 1/2 to 3 months. I've lost about 10 pounds and want to lose 8 more. I know it doesn't sound like a lot but I'm only 5'4" so just 5 pounds of extra weight makes a difference on me and it takes longer for me to lose pounds since I'm not seriously overweight. I have noticed a big difference in how my clothes fit which is awesome and I've been losing inches! My body type is naturally muscular, kinda hour glass with broad shoulders, smaller natural waist and larger hips. I have been getting a lot of encouraging compliments at the gym from guys and girls so that makes me want to go harder! I also want to build more lean muscle, tone my arms, sculpt my abs and get a bigger firmer booty!

Early last year, I went through a really bad break up and I made a promise to myself this April that I was sick of the way I looked and I would dedicate this year to getting into the best shape of my life. I also really wanted to be healthy and take care of my body as best I can. I eat healthy as well: lean meats, fruits and veggies. I do try to have a cheat day once a week so I don't go crazy cause I do love to eat!

I go to the gym 5 to 6 days a week and I go hiking on Sundays. I also do one round of the Body Rocker Weight Workout 2x a week. I work out at LA Fitness and I love it because they offer so may different classes so I will not get bored. The classes I take are an hour each. When I do just regular cardio, it is usually on the elliptical or the stair-mill (which is the best machine ever made!). I love to do yoga, get my salsa on in Zumba, and take the spinning/cycling class when I can.
